Description

Ivan’s 58-inch version of Rod Kriemendahl’s 1949 Formula 1 Racer is an easy building scale model, that behaves like a favorite sport flyer. Performs well on wheels and floats, it makes a great aileron trainer and offers relaxing aerobatics. A 3S LiPo will save weight and increase flight time, making this model all the more fun (2001).
